2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee

UNKNOWN. Electronic Stability Control service light activated intermittently for a couple days along with the 4WD service light. After 2-3 days, the ESC light remained lit. Twice when starting the vehicle, the 4WD low was activated without manually shifting gears, in which changed to normal within a minute later. Intermittently, when the vehicle braked to a stop and switched gears to reverse, the vehicle shuttered before continuing in reverse. Another incident while driving and coming to a stop at a traffic light, upon coming to a stop, the vehicle seemed to almost stall but reengage. The vehicle is at approximately 41,500 miles as of 4/1/2025. The vehicle was taken to a Dodge dealership in which report the transfer case needed repair. With under 50,000 miles and utilizing the 4WD only approximately 4 times within the 5 years of ownership with no issue, the transfer case may be faulty or a software update needs to be performed.

After filling the fuel tank and attempting to start the vehicle, the vehicle failed to start. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, who diagnosed that the battery and fuse box water pump had failed and were replaced. The failure persisted. The dealer inspected the vehicle again and then diagnosed that the Occupant Restraint Control module had failed and caused the air bag to deploy inadvertently, failed to deploy, and needed to be replaced. The contact became aware of NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V046000 (Air Bags); however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The manufacturer confirmed the VIN was not included. The manufacturer referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to file a complaint. The failure mileage was 38,000.

Car running fine no indication there was a problem, no lights on dashboard or sound. Jeep stalled on highway and engine light came on. Shut car off completely turned it back on and able to move to a safe location. Turned off car again for some time and when turned back on shift gear will not move into drive, reverse neutral. Needed to get it towed to mechanic who diagnosed it as a failed transmission at 88,000 miles. Towed to dealer who confirmed failed transmission. Was able to get cost assistance through jeep for 70 percent of cost but see the recent recalls on jeep because of transmission I feel it should have been a total replacement especially at u der 100,000 miles

My vehicle started flashing my seatbelt light when I was driving and I was buckled and then my airbag light came on and my automatic start and stop light came on and have stayed on. I took it into Chrysler Dodge Jeep ram and they charged me $203 to tell me that I don’t have any shorts in the seatbelt wire harness and they found a O.L (over limit) indicating that I have a internal open within the seat, buckle itself,causing the codes and the lights on the dash and that it’ll cost $541.26 to fix and it is not covered under any warranty, even though I just purchased the vehicle eight months ago and I’m under the 100,000 miles and just approaching the first 5 years. I should be covered. Now my airbags will not work and neither will my auto on and off features. This is a safety concern that should have a recall on it or be covered by Mopar.

Driving down the interstate at 75mph, the vehicle all of a sudden lost the ability to accelerate and felt like it shifted into neutral. We were able to pull over to the side of the road safely and as we were getting out of the vehicle, we noticed flames shooting out from under the engine. My wife and I made it out safely and as we got about 100 yards away and looked back toward the vehicle, the entire front part of the vehicle was engulfed in flames. We sat along the side of the interstate and watched the vehicle burn for 20-25 minutes. We just had the vehicle in for service 6 days prior to get a new battery, a new aux battery, an advanced diagnostic, brake fluid exchange, and a fuel system service. The evening we picked up the vehicle from service, we got an email with a powertrain alert indicator. We then checked the app on the phone and everything in the powertrain section of the vehicle health report was green. I have several videos of the vehicle burning but it doesn't look like I can upload a video file.
